Reagan's Doctor Appointment
I just wanted to let you all know that Reagan went to see the Gastroenterologist at Children's Hospital on Thursday. The doctor did an x-ray and found that Reagan's rectum is the size of a large adults. So we now know what the problem is! We have lots of new medicines to help Reagan go potty more often and hopefully we can get her going ever couple of days and then over a period of time we can get her rectum to shrink to a more normal size for her age. We are very happy to finally have an answer and a solution to fix it that does not involve surgery! The funny thing about all of this is that Reagan's pediatrician told us all of this when Reagan was about 2 or 3 but she thought we needed to check with specialist to be sure. And then the bladder problems started (Because of her rectum adding pressure to it) so we kept going to specialist. Now we have an answer that we have had all along! But hopefully with the proper meds we can help her. We go back to the doctor in 3 months and we are going to be very aggressive about this!
